AlbakiReads Editorial

A study edition of a classic spiritual text

St John of the Cross’s *Dark Night of the Soul* is presented here in a complete translation by E. Allison Peers, with more than 176 footnotes. The notes make this edition suited to close study, offering context as readers work through the text’s account of spiritual development and its pursuit of deeper intimacy with God. Its subject is contemplative Christian spirituality, and the book frames that journey through successive stages rather than as a general guide to everyday life. The supplied description identifies this as a hardcover reprint; it does not provide further details about the translation or the scope of the annotations.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers studying Christian spirituality or contemplative writing
  • Those seeking a complete text with extensive footnotes for study
  • Readers interested in St John of the Cross’s account of spiritual development
